Why StratSimple?

Strategic success requires two essential elements: a clear plan and effective execution. We've experienced firsthand how tracking systems fall short without the foundation of a compelling vision and sound strategy. Our approach addresses both critical components—helping you develop the strategic clarity needed to set direction and implementing the accountability systems required to turn plans into results.

While poor strategic planning takes many forms, good strategic planning always looks the same: bringing together the right people, asking insightful questions, building consensus, and maintaining focus on key priorities.

INSIGHT + EXECUTION = RESULTS

Our Values

Rooted in both strategic planning and software design, these values embody the essence of our approach: blending simplicity with effectiveness, focusing on impactful results, and constantly evolving to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

Quality Over Quantity: We firmly believe in doing the right things, rather than more things. This philosophy guides our software development, focusing on features that truly matter. Similarly, in strategic planning, we prioritize impactful objectives over an overload of goals, ensuring each step we take is deliberate and meaningful.

Completion Over Perfection: 'Stop starting, start finishing' is our mantra. We emphasize the value of completing tasks and delivering results, rather than chasing elusive perfection. This ethos is mirrored in our software development cycle and our strategic planning processes, where tangible progress and real-world application take precedence.

Decisions Driven by Happiness: Our decision-making process is uniquely human-centric, prioritizing happiness and satisfaction for both our team and our clients. This principle is ingrained in our software design, ensuring user delight, and it's a cornerstone of our strategic planning, where we aim for outcomes that fulfill and inspire.

Embracing Continuous Improvement: We are committed to the ongoing evolution and refinement of our software, ensuring it always meets the changing needs of our users. While in strategic planning, we advocate for a living strategy that adapts, grows, and improves reflecting the dynamic nature of the real world.

Simplicity as a Guiding Principle: In a world cluttered with complexities, we champion simplicity. We design our software with the user in mind, ensuring it's straightforward and intuitive. Where complexity is neccissary we prioritize making things easier for the customer even if it makes it harder on us..
